At the half: Bucs 21, Panthers 10

Perhaps we've just been beaten into submission by watching so much of the bad, but the Carolina Panthers actually played some serviceable offense in the second quarter.

They trail Tampa Bay 21-10 at halftime, but there were a few moments there where they looked like a real live NFL team on one side of the ball.

QB Jimmy Clausen has made a number of big third-down conversions, and they scored a touchdown on Josh Vaughan's third NFL carry.

It's that kind of week, folks.

The score was set up when TE Dante Rosario recovered a muffed punt. It appeared Panthers CB Marcus Hudson dragged Bucs special teamer Elbert Mack into the path of the ball, allowing Rosario to grab it on the fly.

That's the first time this season the Panthers have scored a touchdown off an opponent turnover, having scored three field goals previously.

The Bucs scored early int he quarter on an all-run drive, with LeGarrette Blount putting together back-to-back 17-yard runs to score.

Then they added the last one with 50 seconds left in the half on a 24-yard pass from Josh Freeman to Kellen Winslow, a perennially tough matchup for the Panthers.

It's about to get away from them, but there are moments of progress.

Davidson once again is basically the sole reason why we are bad today. Clausen was doing well the first half. The recievers were making catches. Vaughn and Goodson looked good running. The defense and Special Teams were good. Davidson's play calling however was sh**. If they arent going to fire Fox before the season ends, we need to at least get rid of Davidson. He's crippling the team. A sweep on 3rd down? really? A quick dink and dunk on 3rd and long? Among others. He has got to be the worst OC in the league. Oh well, hopefully a no game for the local area will send a message to JR to do something.

    • Ickey still out? He good?
    • You're acting like Bryce put him out for the game and the week when that play happened at 4:01 in Q2. Renfrow was targeted four more times after that. Plus, a hospital ball is a poorly placed pass that puts the receiver in a dangerous position to take a big hit by being late or inaccurate.  Ball is out an on its way here. The catch is made at the 25yd line on the hash. Renfrow jumps for no reason and is airborne when he's hit. Bryce doesn't drift him over in front of the safety on the throw and as we can see from the capture that he had the right read. Could he have also waited a little longer for XL to pop up over the middle on the in route? You won't hear me disagree with that. Would have also likely netted more YAC than Renfrow would've considering positioning and momentum for both players. I like that option better than the one he took, but you're also not going to see me make 10 different threads about it like we've seen this week. 😮
    • This offense is like watching a slow bleed out when you think a merciful death has finally ended the suffering only to see a pinky flinch or hear a faint gasp of air creep from the lungs and through the dried out walls of a flaked throat, making you feel a sliver of hope and obligation to stay with the moribund patient on life support until it passes beyond the void and the undertaker begins his duties--usually around week 6.
